Miles Dartman's MMA world has moved aside for his new
reality as a member of Body Armor, but the one thing from
his past keeps playing on his mind. It was just supposed to
be a one night stand that turned into more but she
disappeared. So why is he the one who is wishing for a
little more of the CLOSE CONTACT they had shared?
Maxi Nevar's life is a mess. Miles was supposed to be a good
memory to see her through all the chaos her life had become.
But when she wakes up in a field, on the rocky ground, with
no memory of how she got there ... Miles is the first person
she thinks of. And the last person she really thinks will
remember her or help her, but she has to try.
CLOSE CONTACT is amazing! I am a big fan of author Lori
Foster and can honestly say there isn't anything she has
written that I haven't liked, but this one just hit a lot of
aww notes for me. Maxi is a tough young woman, who has made
mistakes and believes, wrongly, that she must continue to
make "restitution" for those youthful follies. So did her
family, until Maxi was able to get them to back off and
start to leave her alone. It was Miles who gave her the push
to not believe the crap that she was an underachiever, just
different and that it is OK. I had also wondered why Miles
left the MMA (for those new to Ms. Foster that is mixed
martial arts fighting) and that gets explained here. Sorry,
you will have to read to find out, but I will say that Miles
did the right thing leaving.
I have a thing for books that have guys who act like family
though there is no blood, and this is one of the series that
does that. Miles' friends, both in Body Armor and in MMA,
have his back, which means, in turn, have Maxi's. There are
a number of times the guys, and boss lady Sahara Silver show
up and a party follows, but it is also them showing their
support that I enjoy. The danger that is clipping at Maxi's
heels is one that the reader will not see coming as it is
way off from the left field, and this author knows how to
lead you off this way and that before giving you the bad guy.
If you are looking for hunks who fight for those they love,
women who are feisty with good hearts, some intriguing
twists to dangerous situations, but intermixed with fun,
laughter and a lot of sweet and steamy loving, then get your
hands on CLOSE CONTACT right now!
